    "content": "It has come to the attention of this House severally that certain Government agencies and institutions make regulations knowing very well that they cannot be implemented without the authority of the House. They bypass that and publish them and order the citizens and the public to follow those regulations without going through the relevant departmental committee that oversee that particular agency or institution. As if that is not enough, they also do not take their regulations through the Committee on Delegated Legislation. This has created a scenario where some of the regulations are not even in tandem with the law. That is why by bringing these two amendments, it is going to rein in rogue Government agencies and institutions that, at times, bring regulations that inhibit the development in this country. Secondly, at times regulation-making institutions or bodies develop regulations and after having developed them, they put them in the drawer. The public is not made aware of them."
